Harry is back home, as I mentioned yesterday, and now my mother and sister in law have returned to Elko and it’s starting to look an awful lot like NORMAL around here.  I guess you could call it normal.  If normal is two boys charging around the living room, wrestling over control of a nerf football, the dogs scrambling to get out of their way, Liam whining when he’s getting the short end of the stick (which is often), “Jack’s Big Music Show” rocking away in the background and Evie cooing happily in her bouncer seat, where she had been sleeping a few minutes ago but WHO COULD SLEEP with the racket the boys are making?

At some point, I am going to have to put the cushions back on the couch.

Before I go, a couple of things to note:

  1. I got my blood drawn!  I’m not sure when this will translate into a doctor appointment and a refill, but I’m thinking I should give the doctor’s office a call or something.
  2. “Fringe” totally freaks me out but I cannot look away.
  3. Liam has laughed more in the past couple days since Harry has been home than he’s laughed all month long.  I think he missed his brother.
  4. I’m going to try to learn how to knit.  HELP ME.  What are the best “learn how to knit” websites out there?  I have a “starter kit” with needles and other accessories and a skein of yarn.   Now I just need to know what to do with them.

Okay, back to my kids and the wreck they’re making of my living room. (Literally.  I just had to say “Stop jumping on your brother!”)

    I am also a hands-over-the-eyes Fringe fan. That show rocks.

    Also, I tried to learn how to knit once but my short attention span and total lack of hand-eye coordination pretty much left me screwed. Here’s hoping you fare better.

    Also, I REALLY recommend the Stitch n’ Bitch book – I still use it to figure things out!

    oooh… you’re learning to knit?? YAY!! I’m still a very basic knitter myself, but I think I have finally mastered the scarf. I’m going to check with Robyn about websites and such for you – she is self taught and AWESOME!!
